Mack's Interest in
Insurance Firm Said
'Flagrant Violation1
Washington HP) A House
investigator said today FCC
Commissioner Richard A.
Mack's reputed financial in
terest in an insurance firm
holding the account of the
National Airlines TV station
in Miami is "unquestionably
a flagrant violation" of gov
ernment regulations.
Mack voted to award the
hotly contested Channel 10
to the airline.
Rep. Morgan M. Moulder
(D.-Mo.J said evidence also
showed Mack had violated
other rules in his relationship
with persons seeking to "in
fluence" Mack's vote on the
award of television channels
by the Federal Communica
tions commission.
Morse Wants Resignation
Sen. Wayne Morse (D.-Ore.)
said on the basis of what al
ready had been brought out
in the explosive investigation
of federal regulatory agen
cies, that President Eisenhow
ed should have called for
Mack's resignation "before
now."
But Moulder and other in
vestigators said they wanted
to hear Mack in the witness
chair before comment on
whether he should resign or
be fired. Mack is scheduled
to testify Thursday, but there
is a chance he may be called
Wednesday.
When Mack was first ac
cused two weeks ago of hav
ing "pledged" his vote to
Coral Gables. Fla., Attorney
Thomas A. Whiteside in the
award of Channel 10 to Na
tional Airlines after White
side had given him $2,650,
Mack denied any wrongdoing
and said he would not resign.
But Mack declined to reas
sert this stand following tes
; timony by Whiteside linking
him to the insurance company
with television clients. Asked
if he still had no intention of
resigning. Mack told the
United Press, "I have no com
ment."
One-Sixth Interest
Whiteside said Mack holds
a one-sixth interest in the
Stembly - Sheldon insurance
agency which has the account
of the Channel 10 station
owned by National Airlines.
He said the agency also sold
an insurance policy to Bis-
cayne Television Corp. which
operates Miami Channel 7.
Mack also cast a favorable
vote in the FCC's Channel 7
award.
Whiteside, recalled for tes
timony, told the House sub
committee on Legislative
Oversight Monday the insur
ance arrangement "is com
pletely proper if you take
into consideration the cir
cumstances." Moulder who quit the chair
manship of the subcommittee
over the firing of chief coun
sel Bernard Schwartz, appar
ently referred to the regula
tion which specifically for
bids any FCC member from
being "financially interested
. . . in any company furnish
ing services or . . . apparatus
to any company engaged in
communication by wire or
radio."
Jacksonville Woman
Seeks $12,500 in Suit
Ora A. White, route 1, box
12E, Jacksonville, has filed
a complaint in circuit court
asking $81.75 medical ex
penses and $12,500 general
damages of Safewy Stores
Inc., for injuries received
when she tripped in the store
Aug. 5, 1957.
According to the complaint
the plaintiff received multiple
contusions of the right foot
and leg and charged that the
defendant was careless and
negligent in allowing a box
to obstruct the use of an
aisle. The complaint states
that plaintiff was unable to
walk without assistance and
use of a cane for six months
following the accident.
Ora White is represented by
A. E. Piazza, local attorney.

Western Experts
On Russia Believe
End Within Sight
Washington IP! Nikolai
Bulganin may be kicked out
soon as S6viet premier, diplo
mats reported today.
If Bulganin is ousted, the
action would be further evi
dence of the tightening grip
of Communist party boss
Nikita Khrushchev on the So
viet Union. It also would
mean Buleanin would not at
tend an East-West "summit"
conference if one is held.
Little Doubt Left
Bits and pieces of informa
tion being fitted together
here and in other Western
capitals leave little doubt -in
the minds of expert- on Rus
sia that Bulganin's future as
premier is bleak. In fact offi
cial speculation already cen
ters on who will succeed the
moustached Soviet premier.
Bulganin's reported skid
may seem surprising because
of the correspondence he has
carried on recently with Presi
dent Eisenhower on the sum
mit issue. But experts doubt
this prolonged ' correspond
ence will deter other Krem
lin big-wigs from giving Bul
ganin the sack.
The most important evi
dence of trouble for Bulganin
was a switch in the election
district he is to represent in
next month's Soviet elections.
Soviet voters are to select 731
deputies for the Council of
the Union and 633 deputies
for the Council of Nationali
ties. The two bodies make up
the Supreme Soviet (Parlia
ment). District Taken Away
In the 1954 election Bul
ganin represented the im
portant Moscow city district
in the Council of Nationali
ties. Of course he won. But
in next month's election the
Moscow district has been tak
en away from Bulganin and
given to Nikblai M. Shvernik,
former Soviet trade union
leader. This shift has prompt
ed speculation Shvernik might
succeed Bulganin as premier.
Airlines Face
Strike Threat
Washington (IP) The Na
tional Mediation board is
moving to head off a nation
wide strike by airline me
chanics and ground crews
against seven major airlines.
The board asked President
Eisenhower Monday to name
a fact-finding panel under
provisions of the railway la
bor act. This would prevent a
strike for 60 days.
The International Associa
tion of Machinists has set
Sunday for walkouts against
Eastern and United Air lines.
Negotiations also were
broken off between the union
and Trans World, Northwest,
Capital, National and North
east airlines. About 25,000
mechanics and ground crew
personnel would be idled by
a strike.
The National Mediation
board acted by certifying that
a strike would seriously af
fect interstate commerce. The
seven airlines serve nearly
every section of the country.
Frank Heisler, airline coor'
dinator for the machinists,
said the union was asking
wage increases ranging from
29 to 49 cents an hour. The
machinists also are asking for

Governors Cry
Slates' Rights
On Water Issue
Colorado Springs, Colo.
itf) Cries of states' rights
arose today at the Western
Governors conference here
over control of water conser
vation and development.
The governors from nine
Western states and Hawaii
opened their second day of
a three-day meeting at the
Broadmoor hotel on a discus
sion of Western natural re
sources. A recent U. S. Supreme
Court decision allowing con
struction of a dam in Oregon
over ; Oregon's objections
was brought into the discus
sion. "We view this with a great
deal of alarm in Oregon, and
I think the other Western
states join me in this," said
Gov. Robert D. Holmes of
Oregon, who heads the natur
al resources discussion and
the Governors' Resolutions
committee.
Decisions Condemned
He said the court decision
permits the federal govern
ment to overturn long-established
state sovereignty over
water laws at a time when
many western states are try
ing to tighten regulation of
water storage and use.
The decision, the Pelton
case, ruled the Federal Pow
er commission could license
construction by a private con
cern on a non-navigable, in
trastate stream despite pro
tests of the Oregon State Fish
and Game commission, which
in the past had held author
ity. Later, the Navy Depart
ment said in view of the Pel
ton decision it did not need
Nevada's permission to drill
six wells. Nevada protested,
and the case is pending in
federal court.

and Northern Celebes to stay
clear of "military objectives."
A rebel spokesman said the
revolutionary forces would
retaliate in kind if the cen
tral government in Jakarta
launches military operations.
Des Alwi, a spokesman for
the revolutionary regime, said
the rebels are buying planes
to challenge the air force of
President Sukarno's govern
ment. He said a "strong coun
ter attack" will be launched
against the central govern
ment "in the near future."
'Definite Targets'
Military spokesman Maj. G.
Harsono said, in Jakarta that
the week end raids that si
lenced rebel radios in Central
Sumatra and Northern Cele
bes were directed against
"definite targets."
He said pilots had been or
dered to avoid causing "vic
tims among the people." '
Harsono said the appeal to
stay clear of military targets
applied to the armed forces
in the rebel territories as well
as to the civilian population.
' Reports from Jakarta said
Prime Minister Djuanda met
Monday night for nearly
three hours with the chiefs
of staff of the three military
services. The official Indone
sian news agency Antara said
it was believed the talks dealt
with "further action" against
the rebels.
To Take Necessary Measures
Sukarnoh as warned that
all measures necessary will
be taken to "crush" the revo
